Posted on | November 28, 2008 | 2 Comments

Here is the latest of our creation from Janakpur. Its part of a bigger structure which will be complete in only a few more weeks. This is our first truss that is so huge. It uses combination of cement and steel for connection.

Village Of the Future
We are working with a community in Chitwan where we are planting hundreds of bamboo along a river bed. In order to avoid monoculture, we are also planting high value crops like lemongrass, ginger, lentil, chamomile etc. Our plan is to add value to these plants, for example by building schools with local resources, or extracting lemongrass oil so that we can create a unique village that demonstrates the world the best local use of natural resources.

Looks Wonderful..good work
How are the truss nodes connected?…there seems to be no visible connection, detail
a simple illustration or description regarding how the truss joints are fabricated and reinforced would be great and very hwlpful

Hi, I am from India I want a bamboo truss building structure which is 40m long and 7 m in width and height of building could be 5-6m. Can you suggest a suitable design. It would be really helpful.
